In a newsletter from an Iowa Senator, Joni Ernst, she shared a topic which I have not yet heard in the "news". It has been identified that there are thousands of federal employees that are showing up as being paid unemployment and other benefits even though they were still being paid for doing their federal jobs during the pandemic. The newsletter states they "may have" double-dipped since it is an active investigation. The employee names are showing up on both federal payroll records and "other support", such as unemployment, records (Ernst, 2023). What are your thoughts on this type of behavior? If validated should they retain their jobs and their federal pensions and benefits?
